New Years Edition: Confetti, Countdowns & Champagne Celebrations
Camberville may still be on pause for the holidays, but New Years Eve is the exception. From early-bird options as soon as Tuesday (plus afternoon confetti celebrations) to vino toasts at Barcelona and ragers at Remnant (both locations, varying vibes) there's local options all around. No cover options too, we've got you.
HEADS UP
This week will just focus on New Years as most businesses are out for the holidays. The Stoop will resume it’s usual Sun/Thurs night events drops next week while everyone is still on DND mode through the holidays.
Happy New Years!
THE MIDWEEK MOVE
If you're looking for a night that feels like a glitch in the simulation, Remnant Brewing is hosting a dual-location, zero-cover takeover that lets you choose your own reality. You can lean into the warm, crackling nostalgia of an all-vinyl disco set at one venue, or propel yourself into a chrome-plated, hyperpop-fueled tomorrow at the other, all culminating in a massive synchronized roar when the clocks hit midnight.
